Employing recent approaches in cultural history, scholars from a variety of fields revisit well-known works and present less-familiar figures to assess the origins and impact of ideas in their national and global contexts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaken together, these chapters share large themes that define this most consequential period in European history, including the status and reach of speculative reason, the changing roles of science and religion in public life, the emergence of modern selfhood, and the cultural and political effects of mass democracy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 6-volume set \u003ci\u003eA Cultural History of Ideas\u003c\/i\u003e is part of The Cultural Histories Series.
